It hasn’t been the best start to the season for the Mets’ minor league affiliates. Just one team, High-A Brooklyn, has a winning record through the start of the year. However, several minor leaguers are performing well, including A.J. Ewing and Drew Gilbert in St. Lucie. Even in a small sample size, Ewing looks like a breakout candidate this year, while Gilbert has been crushing...

As a result, since being drafted, he has only been able to appear in 10 1/3 innings. However, that finally changed Sunday, as Allan appeared in a game for the first time since 2019 and those surgeries. The now...
